My dad was a great man,father, and husband. I loved him very much and miss him terribly already. He passed away and is in the kingdom of heaven with god now. He loved my mom, my brother, and me so much. He was always there for us through everything. I am proud he was my dad, and I’m proud to be his son. He taught me how to be a man of integrity, that I could be great if I worked hard enough, and that family was everything. Everything he did his whole life was for his family. He and my mom sacrificed so much for me and my brother they really are the best parents anyone could ever have. My mom worked so hard to take care of him and give him the best quality of life possible while he was sick. She did such a great job taking care of him and keeping him at home where he would be most comfortable. He had everything that actually matters in life. A loving wife of almost 50 years and 2 sons who loved him to the max. I am so grateful for my dad and everything he did for us growing up. He always believed in me, even when I didn’t believe in myself. He helped instill a confidence in me that I could do anything if I work hard enough. He was strong, and his life is a story of resilience and love for his family, which is his legacy. He had a great sense of humor; even in his final days, he would still make us laugh. I have so many wonderful memories with my dad that I will hold onto. I will spend the rest of my life to make him proud, and I hope I can be half as good a father as he was someday. Love you, Dad, thank you for everything.
